### Footnotes

1. The figure for 2010-11 has been revised from £212 to take account of the full cost recovery model.
2. Costs associated with decisions for all permanent and temporary migration applications have been estimated using a full cost model.
3. The number of decisions shown here differs from the number of decisions shown as part of the data for the migration decisions in standard transparency indicator. Travel documents which were issued to those granted asylum or refugee status are included in the data for the cost per migration decision transparency indicator. However, as these decisions on travel documents do not have a service standard, they have been excluded from the migration standards indicator data.
